What You'll Need

1/3 cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoon honey

2 clove garlic, chopped

1 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1 (2 to 3 pound) boneless beef chuck roast

4 carrots, sliced into 1-inch pieces

3 rib celery, sliced into 1-inch pieces

2 onions, quartered

1/4 cup cold water

1 tablespoon cornstarch

What to Do

Combine oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger in a large resealable plastic storage bag; seal and shake to combine ingredients. Add beef, seal bag, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Place beef and marinade in a Dutch oven. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer 1 hour. Add carrots, celery, and onions. Cover and simmer about 1-3/4 hours more, or until meat and vegetables are tender. Remove meat and vegetables to a platter; cover to keep warm.

Combine cold water and cornstarch; add to pan juices. Cook and stir until thickened. Slice the meat across the grain. Serve gravy over meat and vegetables.

Notes

It's easy to switch this up and make a sweet-and-sour version by simply adding a drained, 16-ounce can of pineapple chunks with the carrots.
